How fast is your Internet connection? Top US speeds revealed.

The US may be well behind South Korea and Japan in terms of Internet speeds. But Delaware is closing in. The "First State" comes out on top of a recent nationwide review of connection speeds, with almost double the average US data rate.

"The study also pointed to the relatively slow rate at which the average US broadband speed rose in recent years, gaining only about 1.6 mpbs since May 2007," says the LA Times, which published more state rankings. "That was a much slower increase than was seen in the US states with the fastest speeds."
